Glucose is the major fuel for most living cells. The oxidative breakdown of glucose by our body

Question:

Glucose is the major fuel for most living cells. The oxidative breakdown of glucose by our body to produce energy is called respiration. The reaction for the complete combustion of glucose is 

C6H12O6(s) + 6O2(g)  →  6CO2(g) + 6H2O(l)

If this combustion reaction could be harnessed as a galvanic cell, calculate the theoretical voltage that could be produced at standard conditions.
